Breaking Technical News!


In Britian,
After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, British scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 200 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 150 years ago.

In America,
Not to be outdone by the Brit's, in the weeks that followed, an American archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a story published in the New York Times:"American archaeologists, finding traces of 250-year-old copper wire, have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 50 years earlier than the British".

In Canada,
One week later, Canadian Dept of Mines and Resources in Northern Canada reported the following:"After digging as deep as 30 feet in Northern Canada in the Ontario region of Thunder Bay Jack Lucknow, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Jack has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Canada had already gone wireless."

Just makes you bloody proud to be Canadian, don't it!

AW Lake Flow Company Partners with Peacock


Instrumentation Wireheads.

Good News.

AW-Lake Co Strengthens its Presence in Canada with New Distributor Agreement with Peacock, November 23, 2009
FRANKSVILLE, Wisc., Nov. 23 -- In September, AW-Lake Company inked a distribution agreement with Peacock, a division of Kinecor, to stock, distribute and support flow measurement systems from the AW-Lake brands AW Gear Meters and SABRE Flow Turbines. The agreement unifies AW-Lake’s Canadian market and provides more localized support. The two companies are working together to target oil & gas, HVAC, food & beverage, water and pharmaceutical markets, which are expected to continue to bounce back through the end of 2010. Although this is an exclusive distribution agreement, it is non-exclusive for the province of Quebec. Peacock will offer both of AW-Lake’s new products, the TW series turbine flow meter specifically designed for the oil & gas market, and the MicroFlow PD gear meter, which is ideal for low flow rate applications, such as chemical injection.

"We are very proud to align with Peacock, a key player and leading source of instrumentation and industrial products,” stated Curt Foreman, Director of Sales & Marketing for AW-Lake Company. “We are confident that Peacock is equipped with the talent and experience necessary to accelerate the growth of our flow measurement products in the Canadian markets.” Simon Bennington, Peacock’s VP & General Manger agrees, “We feel the AW-Lake products as well as the technical support and new product development program will provide Peacock with a strong product offering, allowing Peacock to use our technical sales and service expertise and Canada-wide presence to mutually benefit both companies.”
